· Protecting the integrity and promoting the public image of the Guild and its members

Our Guild is administered by an Executive Committee of eight directors in response to the strategic direction of the membership. The Executive Committee is supported by an additional twelve positions that tend to the various tasks associated with an effective organization.

The Guild is wholly dependent on the commitment and contributions of the persons who volunteer to take on various responsibilities. Our challenge and goal is to make the organization administratively efficient thereby reducing the demands on our volunteers. To that end, we support and encourage job sharing were possible and appropriate.

Annual membership costs $50.00 per person, $80.00 per family, or $40.00 for associate membership payable by 01 April. There is a reduced fee of $35.00 for new members who join after 01 October (not applicable to persons who have been previous members).

Full membership includes the right to vote and the opportunity to show art in any group show.

Family membership includes one or both parents and eligible dependent children. It includes the right to vote and the opportunity for eligible family members to show art in any group show. The family shall be entitled to only one vote.

Associate membership is available to any person who wishes to support the Guild but it does not include voting rights or the privilege to show art.

According to the CAG Bylaw, at least 85% of the membership must be full or part-time residents in the Bow Valley (communities of Lake Louise, Banff, Canmore, Exshaw and Morley). If you reside elsewhere, please contact Leila McDowell, the Membership Coordinator (403-614-8607 membership.cag@gmail.com) before completing your registration. Thank you.
